This corrosion-resistant surface can be damaged through mechanical means or heat or chemical damage. When that happens, iron is exposed and the item is once again subject to rusting. For this reason, passivation may need to be performed on a regular basis. In both home and commercial settings exposure to things like cleaning solutions, bleach or salt (oceanic environments) all will contribute to the need for regular passivation of the stainless steel. Rayco Metal Finishing is the premier provider of passivation services. Please contact us for more information.
